Resizing entire webpage

Is there any code to use in html or javascript (or anything for that matter) to resize an entire webpage? The reason I ask is because my band's website (http://www.lostfortomorrow.com I'm not advertising , just wanted you to see what I'm asking about) doesn't look the same on each computer, due to whatever screen resolution the computer is using. Some times, the links on top are missing or you have to scroll through the top frame, which I don't want. Is there a code that automatically makes it fit the screen, no matter the resolution?

What i would do is use tables and if you want everything to fit everyones screen use width="100%" or what ever if you get what i mean

What I would do is not use frames (as you have done) and I would not use tables (as iam_clint suggests) but use css to create the page title area with links.

I will conside that it may be a little easier to do this with tables for the beginner but it is a quick and dirty method of doing it and jumping straight to CSS would be better.

Hi guys,

i strongly agree with Banfa.. reason why.. see.. when you use .css to set style for your site it's alot more easier when it comes to editing style.. i.e. there is only one file to edit, which the .css.. unlike when you set inline style on every individual page.. it takes time to edit on every single page and which i consider not practical.. well... correct me if am wrong? :)

Interesting Banfa i did not know that you could size an entire page to fit on every resolution with CSS i might look into that thanks for correcting me seeming how i gave him the wrong information... i figured the problem was something completely based on the title of his page.

Thank you Banfa for the advice. I've never used CSS but I will read some tutorials. Does what you suggest mean that simply using CSS will cause it to fit any screen or is there a code to use to make it fit any screen?
